Inverness Highland Games
The date of the first gathering on the banks of the River Ness
by our ancestors has been lost in the mists of time and will forever
remain a mystery. What we do know is that back in 1821 the Inverness
Courier reported that fundraising was taking place in the town to
revive those ancient Games and to give the Capital of the Highlands
a Highland Games that its townsfolk could be proud of.
Thanks to the efforts of those early fundraisers, 181 years later,
the City of Inverness Highland Games is firmly established as one
of the largest and most enjoyable Highland Games in the North of
Scotland.
